Wondering how the bonus Gps are calculated.

And the way they're calculated -- has it changed recently? There are a couple of tournaments (the ones with with ~60 players) in which I thought the 1st prize pool would be very hight right now. But if the tournament ended now, the top geek would only get ~100 Gps.

If a tournament has no entry fee (in geek points) first place will always get 100 extra gp.... however, if the tournament has an entry fee, the price pool starts at zero and grows with every entry. If I remember correctly first place gets 40% of all geek points used to enter the tournament.

Some tournaments have bonus prize pools for first place well over 500gp.

Any chance the creators would be able to decide how much percent goes towards the prize pool? Obviously a minimum percentage should always go towards it.
